From the Westphalian province to rock star – this dream came true for Bertram Engel in 1976 when Udo Lindenberg signed the then 17-year-old for the legendary Panikorchester. A few years later, another superstar of German rock music, Peter Maffay, hired him as a permanent band member. Bertram Engel has now been in the spotlight with the two for almost five decades, sharing unique moments and destinies with them on and off stage. As a drummer, he is the pulse that drives and holds the band together. In his book, Engel tells of his exciting life as a rock musician, full of unrivalled anecdotes about the stars he has performed with. At the Laeiszhalle, Bertram Engel not only reads from the book, but also plays songs he wrote for Peter Maffay and Udo Lindenberg.
